Abstract

The structural, elastic, electronic and magnetic properties of the Mn2RhSi Mn2-based Heusler alloy were investigated by using first-principles calculations of the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. The results of electronic structures show that the Mn2RhSi exhibits a half-metallic character for a wide range 5.65 to 5.91 A of lattice constant. The half-metallic behavior is confirmed by the integral value of 3 μ B of the total magnetic moment for Mn2RhSi, which follow the Slater-Pauling rule.
